Sipping away
O languish, how I have missed you
taking away all I love, old and new.
Every sip of her delicious poison of choice,
I see her slipping her moorings, o rejoice!
Another star fades, attempting to prove
that it will last forever and never move.
Sipping away, one bottle at a time,
trading her family love for a beer with lime.
No longer hiding behind the mask of peace,
just praying for death's release
from these chemical bonds
that fan your ego like elegant fronds.
I called you mother once,
Now I bury you day by day,
no coffin necessary, just watching you sip away.
I love you, you are my blood,
you bear my name
o how I wish I could bear your shame.
O death, my familiar friend,
she will drink her soul away to the bitter end.
taking away all I love, old and new.
Every sip of her delicious poison of choice,
I see her slipping her moorings, o rejoice!
Another star fades, attempting to prove
that it will last forever and never move.
Sipping away, one bottle at a time,
trading her family love for a beer with lime.
No longer hiding behind the mask of peace,
just praying for death's release
from these chemical bonds
that fan your ego like elegant fronds.
I called you mother once,
Now I bury you day by day,
no coffin necessary, just watching you sip away.
I love you, you are my blood,
you bear my name
o how I wish I could bear your shame.
O death, my familiar friend,
she will drink her soul away to the bitter end.
